Employees working in the industrial and manufacturing industry expose themselves to arc flash risks daily. Arc flash occurs when the electric current leaves its intended path and travels through the air from one conductor to another, or to the ground. The results are often violent, and when a human is in close proximity to the arc flash, serious injury or even death can occur. CBT and Rockwell Automation can help you combat arc flash risks. Through on-site arc flash analysis, customized solutions will be drafted for your specific application.

Rubber gloves are imperative to electrical safety. There are a lot of factors to consider when selecting the correct glove for your application, as well as many standards and compliance factors your gloves must meet.

The importance of effective motor and motor circuit protection cannot be over emphasized. Motors are consistently the largest single cause of industrial and commercial fires, and in today’s highly automated commercial and industrial facilities, the failure of even one relatively minor motor may shut down an entire installation. As a result, it is vitally important that there is at least a basic understanding of how motors and their related electrical systems can be properly protected.
